The dominant doe never scented me but saw me and knew something was out of sort - she snorted repeatedly and my day was done. I gave the woods a rest today and will set up in a slightly different area tomorrow.
We're only ~30 pts out of the lead. I'm quite sure there's only a few of us on the entire board hunting the month of May, so the contest will probably come down to the last few days... S&R Right 26 pts behind with the scores right now but Team 1 has 1 person that has killed birds but not posted them. So I'm just taking a guess but I think we would need 90 pts or there abouts. 2 decent birds from folks that haven't checked a bird would about seal it I think. Either way its been a great year |
Had a tom at 45 yards this morning - too thick for a shot. He was coming in a on string - until Ms. Doe started stomping and snorting about 5 yds behind my tree.
At this rate I may need to break out my Scent-Lok for turkey season - unreal... S&R |
I was out most of the day yesterday, and was on a few different birds, but never got one close. Between a bobcat coming into the field one was in, to deer blowing off (right, S&R?), to just plain stubborn, call-shy birds that seem to run from even purring and scratching, it has been tough, especially lately.
I will stay after it, and have a few hunts left, good Lord willing. I'll keep you posted. |

Those look like cool blinds, the advertisements I've watched look like they work really well.

NWTF 56 score. That's what I'm talkin about! :rock: Was just in your hood yesterday. Had work in Edinburgh then up to Frankfort. But today in Mokena then pit stop at home where I'll pick up the Ghost Blind and head to my Wisconsin public spot. Hot weather on the way. |
Good job firelt72.

Season has been one of the most difficult I have ever had. We have had so much rain. Like Ark building type. Just glad I was blessed Tuesday. Also glad it put us up on top for the time being.
